FYIs
- [Feb 2022] I still need to update most of the existing LoneWolf season reports to reflect necessary revisions to the computation of gambit-related stats and awards. These changes have already been reflected in all 4545 reports (except S1), and aren’t applicable to the Chess960 league.
Recent updates
February 2022
- Published the latest stats for the LoneWolf league (season 24)
- Re-designed the homepage
January 2022
- Improved live standings page; still only works for 4545, and still not properly automated
- Published season stats and awards for the Chess960 league
- Published article on where league players come from, using the flags they choose to show on their Lichess profiles
- Published the latest stats for the 4545 Team league (season 28)
August 2021
Future ideas
Consider this a form of motivation through public commitment. In other words, these might be done next week, next month, next year…or never.
- Adding new leagues:
Chess960 Series, Rapid Battle (yes, I know I’ve been promising these for ages)
- Reporting all-time stats, records and trivia
- Team logo gallery
- Stats about league openings
- Stats about endgames reached in league games, à la 100 Endgames You Must Know
- Stats about 7-piece tablebase positions reached in league games…and their outcomes
Stupidly ambitious ideas
- A world map showing connections between players (a version for live games definitely can’t be done, but even a static version based on historical data is ambitious and magnificently pointless)
